MINNEAPOLIS, November 8, 2012 – Stoneridge Creamery® ice cream has captured two iconic flavors in its latest limited edition ice creams: Cinnamon Snickerdoodle and Peppermint Cookies ‘n Cream. Consumers can scoop them up for approximately the next six months in most of SUPERVALU’s traditional retail stores as well as in independent grocery stores served through SUPERVALU’s Independent Business division.

“Stoneridge Creamery® ice cream is a top-quality family favorite, known for both its regular and unique flavors,” said Sam Mayberry, SUPERVALU’s vice president of private brands. “Our summer limited- edition flavors, Strawberry Lemonade and Harvest Peach, were a tremendous hit with customers. And, we’re excited and confident that they’ll have the same reaction to Cinnamon Snickerdoodle and Peppermint Cookies ‘n Cream, and will want to include them in their holiday dessert menus.”

All Stoneridge Creamery products (including ice cream novelties such as bars, cones and sandwiches) contain premium ingredients and are created in SUPERVALU’s test kitchens. They’re sold in many of SUPERVALU’s traditional retail banners including ACME, CUB Foods, FARM FRESH, HORNBACHER’S, JEWEL-OSCO, SHAW’S, STAR MARKET, SHOP ‘N SAVE and SHOPPERS; they’re also available at SUPERVALU supplied stores.

Consumers can also anticipate that new Stoneridge Creamery ice cream flavors will be introduced in spring 2013. Until then, consumers can enjoy Cinnamon Snickerdoodle and Peppermint Cookies ‘n Cream for the next six months and over 40 traditional and unique flavors sold year round, including Salted Caramel, Banana Split, Pistachio and Java Delight Coffee Toffee Crunch.
